Teacher Training Program Structure
The
goal of the Shambhava School’s yoga teacher training is to
enable each participant to blossom as a yoga practitioner and teacher.
Our experienced and caring staff of yogis will give you personal
attention in refining your form the asanas. They will also help
inspire you to teach from your own inner experience. One of the
highlights of our training is that you’re given the opportunity
from very early on to practice teaching with the support of peers
and teachers. Weekend retreats at Shoshoni Yoga Retreat Center,
located in the pristine mountains above Boulder, provide an unforgettable
opportunity in which to immerse yourself completely in the practice
of yoga and meditation.
